Chicken Tikka Masala Recipe
Description:
I love Indian food and this is one of my favorite Indian entrees.
Ingredients:
***CHICKEN:***
2 cups yogurt
1 teaspoon finely chopped ginger
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon garam masala (see Note)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 pound chicken, cut into cubes
***SAUCE:***
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons chopped onion
1/4 teaspoon finely chopped ginger
1/4 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
4 cans (8-ounce size) tomato sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon garam masala (see Note)
1/4 teaspoon red chile powder
1 cup (or less) heavy cream
1 teaspoon chopped cilantro
Salt to taste
Directions:
For chicken: Mix yogurt with ginger, garlic, red chile powder, garam masala, salt and vegetable oil. Add the chicken cubes, mix well, cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Place marinated chicken cubes on skewers and cook over charcoal. Do not overcook, as the chicken will continue cooking in the sauce.
For sauce: Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the onion, ginger and garlic and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomato sauce, cumin, garam masala and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the cooked chicken and cream and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir in fresh cilantro. Add salt to taste.
